, "Xiaoluo, are you being too naive I feel like something isn't right...""What's going on My head is spinning right now. Don't keep me in suspense, just tell me." I said dejectedly."...That Mu Wanchen...The hot water trickled down, the scent of eucalyptus filling the tub. I stood stiffly, eyes closed, letting the warmth run over my lashes.

Her long, wet hair clung to her back, being gently pulled away strand by strand by the man behind her and placed on her shoulder.

It's really unbearable.

I could feel his gaze raking over my skin, and I began to wonder if he was even seeing clearly. Otherwise, why would his look make me so uncomfortable

The close proximity made each second feel agonizingly long, even more embarrassing than being in bed.

We mostly spend time together at night.

There was no light, only moonlight.

Darkness shrouds many emotions, allowing me to conceal my longing and him to feign indifference.

Let me close my eyes and be a ostrich when I'm lost in it, and let him take everything from me like a tyrant.

We have never been like this before, standing in a place without a single shadow, exposing all of our emotions.

The bathtub was filled with water, and he reached out from behind me to turn off the shower head. The cool air brushed against my scalp, giving me goosebumps all over.

Jiang Qiyun's hands braced against the wall in front of me, enveloping me completely in his presence.

"You're still afraid of me," he said quietly.

"How long has it been Mu Xiaoqiao, aren't you used to it yet" he murmured, his brow furrowed as he leaned close to my ear.

I wiped the water droplets from my face and told myself not to be afraid! He's my husband from a marriage by proxy, after all. It’s not like he's going to get an eye infection just because I cried.

That burst of courage lasted for just a second!

When I turned around, my eyes didn't know where to look!

I almost lost my balance.

His face was flushed.

"What are you afraid of" He frowned, his clear voice a low impact against my heart: "Won't hurt you now, will I"

"There's a little... I'm not really afraid, just embarrassed." I admitted honestly.

"Was it because it hurt so much the first time You were shaking the whole time, even bleeding from your nails. So you have a complex about it" he asked resentfully.

I glared at him, "Of course there were shadows! I thought it was a ghost back then! And marrying the dead is an ominous thing, I thought I was going to die. Who wouldn't be afraid before they died... Besides, you're too rough and blame me for it"

That night, the white robes were stained not with gentle crimson petals but with streaks of blood. Didn't your Imperial Majesty see that

Not only the first time, but also the night you appeared this time...

This could be considered "a long time coming," and I couldn't help but point out his tyrannical behavior.

"Why are you always so tense" He reached out to hug me, but his words never admitted to his roughness.

The next day, my whole body ached. He had calmed down a lot last night, not as ferocious as before, he must have been considerate of the two little ones in his belly.

I went downstairs trembling, and discussed ordering takeout with my brother.

"I don't want to cook today! Standing is so tiring!" I pleaded with my brother.

My brother feigned a punch at me: “Making love until you forget to sleep and eat, are you still embarrassed to say so!”

"You tell Jiang Qiyun! I don't want to do this either…" I mumbled.

My brother gave me a look of disdain and said in a heavy tone, “Xiao Qiao, are you... well, don't blame your brother for snooping into your privacy. Who do we have to ask if mom wasn't around No one discusses this with you—I mean, are you not good at *making love* "

"Huh" How is that possible!

If you don't have sex, how did I get two little ancestors in my belly

My brother waved his hand dismissively and said, "I mean, are you just going to lie there doing nothing"

"...and there are some lying down, sitting down."

My brother was speechless: “It’s all the same! I just want to tell you, making love is a two-way street. You’re always passive and have no skills, so he naturally feels unsatisfied. If he’s unsatisfied, he’ll just keep going until he’s satisfied. After all, he’s not human, but you are! Look at how unsteady you are…”

"The art of marital intimacy is also a study, which is very beneficial for the stability of couple relationship and the harmony of the family. You should learn it well."

I blacked my face and asked speechless, "How to learn By reading classical Chinese texts and realizing it yourself That's too difficult..."

"You've got some serious gaming potential! You've done this so many times and you still just end up lying down. Your brother-in-law has really low expectations for you! It's impressive that he's still so attached to you even with your skill level!"

“Then… how should I learn” I blushed and looked at him.

My brother flashed a sly grin and said in an inscrutable tone:itely wasn't a mountain forest during vacation."It's not even a holiday yet! There are so many tourist buses already" My brother was driving and got stuck in traffic because there were quite a few tou...
